4.5 stars, would go again. Came for dinner for Dine Out Boston. Not too loud which I liked, but it was an early dinner. Food came quick and employees were pleasant. Parking is available in a lot right next to the restaurant. Street parking also available, but seems kind of stressful finding a spot in a busy neighborhood.

This place was great, the staff was super friendly, and they accommodated our big group on marathon weekend, which was awesome! Their food was delicious. I had the arincini to start. I wish it had more sauce with it or some sauce to dip it in. For my main meal, I had the genevese, which was a pesto pasta, and it was good. Worth stopping in!

I don’t usually write reviews but this restaurant blew my mind. Probably the best meal I’ve had of 2023, most likely even longer, and I travel and/or eat out regularly. I had the espresso salmon that was plated over arugula/sweet potatoes with two glasses of red wine. The bread was served with the best balsamic vinegar I’ve ever tasted and I’ve worked in Italian and fine dining restaurants. The prices were reasonable and the staff was very friendly. The owner was kind and accommodating from the moment I walked in to the moment I left, and you can tell it’s a neighborhood favorite for regulars. The staff all seemed to really get along too, and were hanging out at the bar after their shifts. I spent over 12 years in the restaurant industry and that kind of camaraderie is really great sign. At the end of my meal they asked me where I was from (Philly) and we joked about our sports rivalry, all in good fun. Excellent little gem in a small, cute and diverse neighborhood.

We got the Lobster Risotto , Espresso Salmon, and a kids pizza. The Salmon was FANTASTIC!!!!!! I have never tasted something so good and the maple Dijon glaze was a perfect combination to the dish. My bf had the Lobster Risotto. He tried something new and gave it a 10/10. I want to personally thank the staff as it was my bf bday and we got a lemon cake on the house. We will definitely be going back.

Outstanding authentic Italian cuisine. They bring recipes they get while visiting Italy….Place is really loud acoustically though. But atmosphere is secondary. Wait staff and bartenders are very pleasant to work with you.

This is our favorite restaurant and so happy it’s in our neighborhood. When people come visit from out of town, we always bring them there for the amazing food. The staff and Joe the owner are the best!

I had the scallop dish this past Saturday. It was fabulous and the scallops were cooked perfectly. I’ve had the espresso salmon in the past and it also is excellent. Everything is fresh and cooked to perfection.

I love Italian food and I love finding new places that know how to do it right. everything was on point. space was big and airy. bread at the beginning of the meal could’ve been enough for me. with the oil and balsamic these people really get me.

Great atmosphere and wonderful service! My server, Emily, was great and very attentive. I enjoyed the Prosecco di Sonia and the Cacio e pepe which was delicious! Highly recommend! I will definitely be back!
